Eid Al Fitr 2021

 

April and May went by so quickly

Fasting, zooming and very few activities due to the constant fear of Covid

Ramadan always brings serenity and peace, and I enjoyed every single moment.

 

March 2021 recap

March is usually cool, starting with Sary's birthday, ending with mother's day 

but what was much more special this year is a spontaneous visit from my sister Jumana

we loved every moment, despite the Covid constraints and precautions

also, mother's day and some other moments captured this month:

Sary is 10!

Sary just turned 10 today, and I couldn't be prouder. From the moment he entered our life, he has brought nothing but joy, laughter, and love. Watching him grow into such an amazing young person has been the greatest journey. His kindness fills our hearts with happiness. Happy birthday, my wonderful son! 

Thank you Nissrine for the great cake!

New Year 2021, Lockdown, oh and we got Covid!

2021 

what a year, like a whole lifetime

we had a cool lunch and an amazing trip with the neighbors to celebrate the new year hoping it will be merry covid-free  

and oh how we were mistaken

but it wasn't the case

I got COVID in February (during the lockdown!)

kids were not able to approach me and I thought it was the hardest thing ever

not being able to hold and hug your kids

it was tearing me apart

along with the fever and the pain I was feeling from toes to head

few days after kids caught covid and Jamil too eventually

we are grateful it was tolerable, just fever for kids

grateful we are finally free of the panic that was haunting us

and finally ready to start the year full of hope and energy 

not knowing it will be the year I will never forget

Covid shopping: 

don't judge me, the basket looked really huge on Decathlon website :)
